Chelsea are ready to launch a stunning bid for Real Madrid attacker Gareth Bale.

The Wales captain has battled with injury this season, which has led to talk of frustration swirling around the Real boardroom.

Real president Florentino Perez is prepared to listen to offers for Bale, with fellow directors insisting a prime player can't be spending so much time off the pitch.

Don Balon says Chelsea have tabled a €100 million cash bid for the winger - an offer which Perez hasn't swatted away.

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte wants to bring Bale back to the Premier League - especially if Real press on with attempts to prise Eden Hazard away.

Along with Chelsea, Manchester United are also keeping close tabs on Bale's situation, with claims in Spain suggesting Old Trafford is the Welshman's favoured destination.
